From the tank at the brewery, courtesy of Mauro. Pours hazy golden with medium white head. Malty, some light lemon, some bread, crisp. Light sweetness. Light bodied. Nice one, was great on a hot day. Tried the bottle as well, wasn't nearly as impressive, but since bottle stayed in car trunk for couple of days I'm leaving the rate from the brewery.

Bottle, enormous thanks Iznogud & Max! Hazy golden body, white head. Flowery full sweetish malty aroma, mild touches of candied fruit. MIld creamy sweetish flowery taste, some honey, a bit lean, well hidden ABV, ends slightly dry. While itll never be my favorite beer, a very good strong lager in my opinion. Sweetish but not too sweet, very well balanced. Mastino does some really nice lagers!

Bottle, huge thanks Iznogud & Max! Murky brown body, off white head. Nice dry maltiness, bit nutty, bit sticky, sweetish, mild alcohol touches. Taste... Dry, mildly nutty and vaguely chocolatey taste, but soo lean. Just a touch of jam. Nice, but sliiightly too lean. A vague bitterish touch in the finish. Tasty, drinkable, better than the sum of its parts.

Bottle, huge thanks Iznogud & Max! Lovely misty amber-red body, off white head. Superb malty, slightly jammy aroma, light herbal touches. Lean but smooth taste, well developed nutty-fruity touch, some dry herbal notes, ends on the sweetish sided. Classy!

Bottle, huge thanks Iznogud & Max! Hazy yellow-golden body, tiny white head. True to style aroma, white bread maltiness, well developed herbal hoppy touches, fresh. Mild light, soft peppery-herbal and slightly citric taste, vague malty undertones. Just slightly too subdued. Nice, drinkable lager, very well made, nuances away from best German stuff!
